Zoo isn’t my favorite, but this scarf really looks like a zoo, but with all the animals escaping and going wild. All of the animals that I’ve illustrated here are endangered. Can you imagine, a few years from now there might not be a single one of our beloved pandas left. In the whole wide world. Think about that for a moment.

E-mail and sms in all it’s glory, but honestly, isn’t it pure happiness when you get a handwritten postcard in the mailbox. So to support that I’ve designed a few postcards to go along with the fruit-tema of the scarf collection. If you don’t want to write on them, you could also just keep them for yourself and put them on the wall.
Up to you.

They will be up on Etsy any day now. But if you can’t wait for that. Just send me a mail instead lena@asakapop.com

What could this be? Such a funny little box! Oh, it contains cards. A lot of them. And a lot of different patterns. Hm, why is that you wonder.. Answer: Cause I made a mini fruity memory! I’m going to invite people to play with me at Design Festa. Like a little competition, maybe there will be some nice prices to win as well?!

åsakapop is now releasing the first collection Äppel Päppel (a kids jingle rhyming on the Swedish word for apple), and it’s all about eating your fruits and taking care of yourself, to get fresh, alert and alive. And I was thinking that I should introduce you to each product a little better. First out is Caleidoscope.

100% organic cotton. 46×46 cm, which is perfect to tie round your neck or head. It is sateen woven which makes the colours bright and clear. It’s printed and sewn in Sweden, small scale, by people with great skills for their handicraft.

Miku has tied Caleidoscope round her head with her hair in a loose bun.

Because of the bright colours it looks very good together with jeans, of course black and white and everything between, but to go more bold matching one of the colours in the print would look gorgeous as well. And you know what? It’s both for the ladies and gentlemen out there!

In a close up it looks like this.

This collection is all about fruits. But there is a black sheep here. Can you find it?
